Chapter 379
It was precisely based on this point that Old Ancestor Minghe had initially looked down on Luo Fu.
In fact, among the old-school great supernatural beings of the Journey to the West world, Old Ancestor Minghe is considered quite special.
Old Ancestor Minghe's trump card is created by relying on the Netherworld Sea of Blood.
Because Old Ancestor Minghe was nurtured by the Netherworld Sea of Blood, he naturally has a connection with it.
Relying on this connection, Old Ancestor Minghe successfully merged with the origin of the Netherworld Sea of Blood.
The Netherworld Sea of Blood is not an ordinary place; the power it contains is not weak, and its origin is relatively independent, completely equivalent to a world of its own.
Merging with the Netherworld Sea of Blood, from a certain perspective, Old Ancestor Minghe is also equivalent to merging his body with the Dao, only Old Ancestor Minghe merged with the Dao of the Netherworld Sea of Blood.
Putting everything else aside, on this point alone, Old Ancestor Minghe is somewhat similar to a Saint.
Saints also attained the Dao and became Saints because they merged with the Heavenly Dao.
The only difference is that the Heavenly Dao dominates the entire Primordial World, and the Netherworld Sea of Blood is also under the domination of the Heavenly Dao.
Therefore, Old Ancestor Minghe's strength is weaker than a Saint's, and he cannot leave the Netherworld Sea of Blood.
Although the power he possesses is much weaker, the essence remains unchanged.
Old Ancestor Minghe can even be regarded as half a Saint.
Possessing power close to a Saint's, and unlike Buddhism, which is a tall tree that catches the wind and seeks too much, needing to balance various forces...
... aturally, there is no need to overestimate or fear Luo Fu.
Even now, Old Ancestor Minghe still believes that the hard power Luo Fu displayed still has a gap compared to old-school great supernatural beings.
The reason Old Ancestor Minghe suddenly became serious is that the techniques Luo Fu displayed and the Great Dao mysteries he was proficient in were simply too many.
When battling Tathagata, Luo Fu displayed no less than a dozen Great Dao insights; although it was uncertain whether each Great Dao insight had reached the Quasi-Saint limit, they were at the peak of Quasi-Saint.
And just now, Luo Fu successively displayed the Great Dao of Reincarnation, the Great Dao of Light, and the Great Dao of the Sword, and his insights into these three Great Daos had all reached the Quasi-Saint limit.
Especially the Great Dao of the Sword; possessing Yuantu and Abi, two sword-type slaughter spiritual treasures, Old Ancestor Minghe also had some insights into the Great Dao of the Sword.
Precisely because of this, Old Ancestor Minghe understood just how unfathomable the Great Dao mysteries contained within the sword Luo Fu had just used with such ease really were.
Of course, what was truly unfathomable was Luo Fu himself.
Facing Luo Fu, who could use over a dozen mysterious Great Daos as if they were nothing, no one would dare to underestimate him, because no one knew how many more techniques the seemingly unfathomable Luo Fu was still hiding.
"Luo Fu, let me show you what exactly allows this Old Ancestor to be untouchable even by Saints. Billions of Blood Gods, rise for me!"
After putting away the Twelve-Ranked Fire Red Lotus, Old Ancestor Minghe's eyes began to turn completely scarlet, and his gaze, increasingly dense with murderous intent, locked onto Luo Fu.
As the word "rise" fell, Old Ancestor Minghe's body began to turn into blood water bit by bit.
In an instant, the body Old Ancestor Minghe had just recovered exploded with a boom.
It turned into countless blood droplets.
They fell in all directions of the Netherworld Sea of Blood, merging into it.
In the next instant, where the blood droplets fell, blood water began to gather and condense, transforming into countless blood-colored humanoid creatures.
These creatures were the Blood God Children that Old Ancestor Minghe relied on to roam the Primordial World.
Compared to the Old Ancestor Minghe of the Primordial World, the Old Ancestor Minghe of the Journey to the West world, having gone through countless eons of tempering, undoubtedly had more mature and profound strength and techniques.
Especially the Blood God Children.
The Old Ancestor Minghe of the Primordial World relied more on the origin power of the Netherworld Sea of Blood, and the technique of the Blood God Children was still in the initial stage, not mature or perfect.
The Old Ancestor Minghe of the Journey to the West world was different.
Ever since he exhausted all his efforts and still failed to attain the Dao and become a Saint like the Six Saints, the Old Ancestor Minghe of the Journey to the West world had to resign himself to his fate.
He poured all his energy into how to continue strengthening his own power without attaining the Dao and becoming a Saint.
For ordinary great supernatural beings, there are only two ways to strengthen their strength: improving Great Dao insights and obtaining stronger spiritual treasures.
Improving Great Dao insights is something Old Ancestor Minghe was of course doing.
Countless eons passed, and Old Ancestor Minghe had long since comprehended the Great Dao of Blood he was proficient in to the Quasi-Saint limit.
As for stronger spiritual treasures, the spiritual treasures Old Ancestor Minghe possessed were already strong enough: Yuantu and Abi, which were comparable to peak innate spiritual treasures, and the peak innate spiritual treasure Twelve-Ranked Fire Red Lotus.
Old Ancestor Minghe's configuration of spiritual treasures could be considered very luxurious even among old-school great supernatural beings.
Therefore, there was no room for improvement in this regard for Old Ancestor Minghe.
However, Old Ancestor Minghe still had a path to strengthening his power that was unique to him.
That was strengthening the Blood God Children.
The Blood God Children were a unique supernatural power created by Old Ancestor Minghe with the help of the Netherworld Sea of Blood.
In terms of potential, even in the Primordial World where strong people were numerous, it could be considered top-tier.
Because the Blood God Children had an advantage that could be called unsolvable, and that was that they could be improved without limit.
Yes, improved without limit.
As long as Old Ancestor Minghe was willing, he could create Blood God Children without limit.
Creating Blood God Children, which were similar to clones, without limit, was of course impossible for ordinary people.
Even Saints could not create clones without limit.
For one, with too many clones, it was impossible to spare the mind to control them, making it difficult for them to play a role in battle.
For another, creating clones required consuming a large amount of heavenly materials and earthly treasures; once the number of clones created was too high, even Saints could not afford the consumption.
The number of clones is not the more the better.
Otherwise, Taishang's famous supernatural power would not be "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones," but "One Qi Transforms into N Pure Ones."
But these two problems were not problems for Old Ancestor Minghe.
The Blood God Children were condensed and created using the water of the Sea of Blood; the Netherworld Sea of Blood is boundless, and it is growing every moment, which can almost be considered inexhaustible.
Condensing clones using the water of the Sea of Blood can almost be considered cost-free.
As for control, because they were clones condensed using the water of the Sea of Blood, Old Ancestor Minghe could directly control every Blood God Child through the origin of the Netherworld Sea of Blood.
The power contained in the origin of the Netherworld Sea of Blood was far more powerful than that of a Saint.
Controlling mere Blood God Children, no matter how many there were, could be done easily.
Therefore, after raising his own Great Dao insights to the Quasi-Saint limit, Old Ancestor Minghe poured all his heart into condensing and perfecting the Blood God Children.
After these years of effort, Old Ancestor Minghe's Blood God Children were claimed to number 480 million, and every single Blood God Child was not weak.
Among them, quite a few had been raised to the Quasi-Saint level by Old Ancestor Minghe.
The Blood God Children that self-detonated before were the Quasi-Saint level Blood God Children condensed by Old Ancestor Minghe.
Old Ancestor Minghe didn't even blink an eye when taking over a hundred Quasi-Saint level Blood God Children to self-detonate; one can see how terrifying Old Ancestor Minghe's accumulation was after these years of settling.
If it weren't for the fact that the Blood God Children could not leave the Netherworld Sea of Blood, in a situation where Saints did not appear, Old Ancestor Minghe alone might be able to sweep across the entire Journey to the West world.
This is also one of the reasons for Old Ancestor Minghe's arrogance; he had the capital to be arrogant.
"Kill!"
Billions of Blood God Children, densely covering the Netherworld Sea of Blood, surrounded Luo Fu from all directions.
Billions of battle cries rang out simultaneously, and the entire Netherworld Sea of Blood shook because of it.
Except for differences in strength, every Blood God Child was exactly the same, and it was impossible to tell which one was Old Ancestor Minghe's true self.
Or rather, every Blood God Child was Old Ancestor Minghe's true self.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Under Old Ancestor Minghe's control, billions of Blood God Children raised their right hands simultaneously, and two sword glows flew out from the right hand of each Blood God Child, slashing toward Luo Fu.
The two sword glows flying out from the right hand of each Blood God Child contained a trace of the slaughter aura of Yuantu and Abi.
This was created by Old Ancestor Minghe simulating Yuantu and Abi.
Yuantu and Abi were Old Ancestor Minghe's companion spiritual treasures and had long been completely refined by him; simulating a trace of aura was not difficult.
Two sword glows containing a trace of Yuantu and Abi's aura were not terrifying, but billions of pairs of them were somewhat terrifying...
